Barefoot Walking - (Set time: 9:30 PM)
Lead singer Livia Beasley and guitarist Anthony Grillo first made music together in the late ‘90s. In 2009, the two friends joined up again as Barefoot Walking. Drummer George Scoufaras and bassist Brian Takacs drive their heavy rhythm section. Fiddle and keyboard player Griffin Sargent deepens the rootsy vibe already present Liv’s classic Americana vocals.
While Livia is a child of the Illinois farm belt, the boys of Barefoot Walking were all born and raised in New York. The sound that emerges seamlessly flows from folk pop and indie funk. City on the outside, country on the inside.
Barefoot Walking is a rootsy, leftfield pop outfit, whose songs have an infectious, dance-funk twist. Barefoot Walking’s material has a deceptively cheerful surface that hides a far darker undercurrent. Let them pull you under.

Taylor Ferrera - (Set time: 7:30 PM)
Often called the Golda Meir of songwriting (while others have called Golda Meir the Taylor Ferrera of Israeli prime ministers,) Taylor Ferrera has been posting her songs and musings on Youtube for 3 months (24 years in Youtube time.) She hopes to parlay all the attention they've gotten her into getting cast as “extra #36” in Martin Scorcese's next film “Extra #36”.
Marissa Dwyer - (Set time: 8:30 PM)
Marissa Dwyer is a singer songwriter born & raised in Esperance, New York. A child of the 90s, she grew up fascinated by the performance styles of artists like Britney Spears and Gwen Stefani. Marissa cites a wide range of musicians as influences, from Alanis Morissette & Lauryn Hill to more recently Lana del Rey, Florence Welch & the musicians she crosses paths during her artistic pursuits. She has spent the past two years writing her personal history through pop songs and says that "when people relate to it in some way and are touched by that, it's the ultimate reward as a performer."
Marissa lives in the East Village & sings at venues throughout Manhattan & Queens.
She also regularly performs her original songs at open mics; always looking to meet other musicians, collaborate & evolve as an artist.
